A quick Google suggests that the RX600 is not like the RX640, nor is the RX640 like the Stylus 640. The Ubuntu forums have a lot of people printing blank pages. I made the same mistake with HP Laserjet, thinking the model name might mean something about how it works. This is so not the case with modern consumer goods, indeed with TVs and Videos, the brand name tells you only who paid to have their name on the outside of the packaging. At "openprinting.org" they recommend the gimp-print plug-in for this printer. Package "gimp-print" on Debian http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Epson-Stylus_Photo_RX640 You can try printing directly from the GIMP, if this works, you can set up a printer as you did for the RX600, but using "gimp print" as the printer driver, and try again. Might be worth checking the Epson website as well! When it works, blog about it, or update the OpenPrinting Wiki.
